SidebarDiagnostics overlay not staying on selected monitor/screen #354

Open giias opened 3 years ago

giias commented 3 years ago

Hello. I use multiple monitors - 4 monitors. I have SidebarDiagnostics set to monitor #2, which isn't my primary display. Sometimes I set my primary/main display to a different monitor like monitor #3 or monitor #4 because I want to run a game or some app in that monitor and the game or app on fullscreen only starts in the primary display.

The issue is that sometimes, when I switch my primary/main display around in Windows10, SidebarDiagnostics moves over to another display instead of staying in my monitor/screen #2. Not sure if this is by design or it's supposed to stay in the designated display but it's not somehow (maybe because changing primary/main display in Windows10 makes SidebarDiagnostics think that screen #2 is now in a different location ? If so, can it be corrected or adjusted to stick to the originally designated monitor somehow ? )

I guess it's not a huge issue... but it would be nice if I could keep it in screen #2...

Also, thanks for all the work on SidebarDiagnostics. I really like how lightweight it is and how it looks

1. Is this a feature request?

No

2. Your Operating System

Windows 10 Education 20H2 OS build 19042.985

3. App Version

app-3.5.8

4. Any Relevant Settings

The setting I have enabled for the app-

Dock Right, Screen #2, Language Default, Reserve Space, Run at Startup

UL Scale 1.3 Horizontal Offset 0 Vertical Offset 0 Polling Interval 1000 Show Tray Icon Toolbar Mode

Sidebar Width 165 background color Black Background Opacity 0.01 Text Align Left Font Size 14 Font Color #09D98E Alert Font Color #FF4136 Alert Blink checked Date Format May 25

Monitors: CPU, RAM, and GPU

Toggle: Scroll key

5. Steps to Reproduce

Have multiple monitors (in my case I use 4) Set SidebarDiagnostics to screen #2 (or any screen...) Change your primary/main display around among the different monitors/displays in Windows 10 (Display settings --> Multiple displays --> check the "Make this my main display" box)

then the SidebarDiagnostics overlay will move around instead of staying in the original screen #2 (or instead of staying in whichever screen you had originally assigned it to)
